Baked Cranberry Cream Cheese Dip

Ingredients:

1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries

1/4 cup orange juice

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional, for garnish)

Fresh rosemary (for garnish, optional)

Crackers or sliced baguette (for serving)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish.

In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, sour cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cranberries, orange juice, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries begin to soften and the mixture thickens slightly.

Spoon the cranberry mixture over the cream cheese layer in the baking dish.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the dip is warm and bubbly.

Garnish with chopped pecans and fresh rosemary if desired. Serve warm with crackers or sliced baguette. Enjoy!
